Feld0's Theme - Extended on Live Piano!


Marcato

Well now I've done it.

 

Having acquired a high quality microphone, I realized an amazing opportunity had arisen. So, I made this.

 

https://pony.fm/tracks/123-feld0s-theme-live-piano

 

 

To quote what I initially wrote about the track on Pony.fm

Wait a second, this song is almost 4 minutes longer than the original!

 

Backstory time!

When I initially created Feld0's theme, I wanted to make a larger piece that was much more grand. Unfortunately there were a couple reasons I could not or would not do this.

1. I felt it would be unfair considering all the other staff themes on the forums were within 2 minutes long.

2. I would have to make a fully orchestrated masterpiece, which I was not able to do with my experience.

Thus many, MANY bits were cut out of the song or shortened.

 

And now, having acquired an HQ microphone I can now record my piano live instead of the VST I use.

Problem, my soundcard is bad, thus there was a RIDICULOUS amount of static. Because of this, I used my crappy noise reduction from audacity and in a sense decreased the clarity of the piano. *DEPRESSION* On top of that one of my G keys on the piano doesn't work half the time. (You might hear me banging on a key trying to get it to work.)

 

Ultimately it ain't the greatest, but I wanted to get this song down and out. I just love Feld0's theme so much, I had to give it its full original glory. I may even make a fully orchestrated version should I get motivated to do so...

 

There you have it, the whole story. I apologize to all of you that the quality is still not AMAZING. I do plan to find a way to improve my recording in the future, and I hope that you'll all support me with cheers as I attempt to get things working. :P

Yeah, you can't quite beat digital recording format, but nevertheless, this is good!

May I ask what type of piano this is recorded on?

Well our piano is a New Scale Williams, it's upright. It's VERY old and a bit out of tune though. :c

Plays every time the clouds overhead open up, and his Feldship descends down from Mount Ponlympus in order to offer a kind yet strong guiding hand in calming the occasionally quarreling members of the community.
